Didn’t see that coming. Good for him.
Bunch of rubbish. Ignore
there should be requirements that active players cant buy clubs, only once they retire. can they do it. It could cause problems similar to two clubs owned by the same people in the same competition
I’d be interested to see if there’s any rules over conflicts of interest if you play against a club you *own* as a player, obviously they have rules about multi club ownership when they play each other.
Not true.
What about the english investment fund?
Thats just the end stage of football, tbh.
It started in the 80s with Bates buying Chelsea, Bunga Bunga buy Milan and then Walker buying Rovers. Then we had Roman buying Chelsea and Levy buying Tottenham in the early 2000s. 2008 the UAEs bought City, 2010 the Saudis PSG and its been a steep decline ever since.
US celebs buying minority stakes to diversify their portfolios and now active players buying clubs is really just the final coffin of this circus.
Germany is the only country, where things are still in order with their 50+1 ownership rules. Good on them.
The world is a strange place. A right back in his mid-20s can buy a football club in the top league in France.
He thought it was FC Nandos
What happens when Liverpool play Nice? Is Trent banned from playing in that match by UEFA?
Already been denied
Didn’t think this was possible given that you couldn’t be an active footballer and gamble.
So what difference does this make?
This has been proven false by James Pearce… OP
This was rubbished almost immediately 😂
I miss the good old days when footballers just bought a pub when they retired.
Lies. Lol. Already bin confirmed false by one of our main local journos. Oh my.
Can’t imagine this will happen but is it possible for an active player to own a club?
Putting your father in charge of your earnings seems like a good way to lose all your money.
Hard to explain from my American POV but is journalism on the European continent just worse? Seems like 90% of the articles that come out are just straight false. Whether it’s transfer news, or just regular day to day info about clubs. I follow the NBA, NFL, and CFB regularly and yes there’s still bad articles here and there but nowhere close to this sport
Smells like bullshit
You what?
I would have thought a team called Nantes would be bought by Benzema and Adam Johnson.
